The issues

There have been many issues in the creation of my film. I have had issues with getting people at the times I have needed them. I have also had problems with the weather as it snowed one day I was meant to shoot. I have had technical problems like the camera not being available, the camera not working and not being able to edit.

Changed Ideas and problems

I have changed my idea again this time it is going to have a more original design. This time i am doing the same theme of waking up but this time there was a huge party and a bad event happened during the night and the main character is having flashbacks of the previous night.

I have had many problems in pre-production and in the editing stages. I have had the problem of actors nit being able to film. Also the editing stages have caused major problems. This is due to the fact the camera isn't registering on any computer one week, then when it works there is no video footage. Then when we transferred it to an external hard drive my work was missing from the work there.

Music

For my for I have chosen some royalty free music from the site Incompetech. The music works as it is quite calm and same tone throughout and has the bouncy feel to it. Then it bumps up and starts going serious as you see the final clip.

Story Bored Idea 1


Change of plans

I have had to change my initial idea from doing a zombie comedy to doing a drama comedy. I decided this due to the fact I needed a large amount of people and it was impossible to get everyone at the same time. I also struggled to find the props and make-up I needed. So therefore in order for me to get a good grade I choose to go with a better and easier idea of a drama. My drama will be in the style of a skins and misfits type of idea. It requires less props and less people.
